Android Apk static analysis library for Ruby.

Gem Version Build Status

Requirements

  • ruby(>=1.9.x)

Install

$ gem install ruby_apk

Usage

Initialize

  require 'ruby_apk'
  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk') # set apk file path

Apk

Listing files in Apk

# listing files in apk
apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
apk.each_file do |name, data|
  puts "#{name}: #{data.size}bytes" # puts file name and data size
end

Find files in Apk

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  elf_files = apk.find{|name, data| data[0..3] == [0x7f, 0x45, 0x4c, 0x46] } # ELF magic number

Extract icon data in Apk (since 0.6.0)

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  icons = apk.icon # { "res/drawable-hdpi/ic_launcher.png" => "\x89PNG\x0D\x0A...", ... }
  icons.each do |name, data|
    File.open(File.basename(name), 'wb') {|f| f.write data } # save to file.
  end

Extract signature and certificate information from Apk (since v0.7.0)

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  signs = apk.signs # retrun Hash(key: signature file path, value: OpenSSL::PKCS7)
  signs.each do |path, sign|
    puts path # => "MATA-INF/CERT.RSA" or ...
    puts sign # => "-----BEGIN PKCS7-----\n..." PKCS7 object
  end

  certs = apk.certificates # retrun Hash(key: signature file path, value: OpenSSL::X509::Certificate)
  certs.each do |path, cert|
    puts path # => "MATA-INF/CERT.RSA" or ...
    puts cert # => "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n..." # X509::Certificate object
  end

Note: Most apks have only one signature and cerficate.

Manifest

Get readable xml

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  manifest = apk.manifest
  puts manifest.to_xml

Listing components and permissions

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  manifest = apk.manifest
  # listing components
  manifest.components.each do |c| # 'c' is Android::Manifest::Component object
    puts "#{c.type}: #{c.name}" 
    c.intent_filters.each do |filter|
      puts "\t#{filter.type}"
    end
  end

  # listing use-permission tag
  manifest.use_permissions.each do |permission|
    puts permission
  end

Extract application label string

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  puts apk.manifest.label

Resource

Extract resource strings from apk

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  rsc = apk.resource
  rsc.strings.each do |str|
    puts str
  end

Parse resource file directly

  rsc_data = File.open('resources.arsc', 'rb').read{|f| f.read }
  rsc = Android::Resource.new(rsc_data)

Resolve resource id

This feature supports only srting resources for now.

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  rsc = apk.resource
  
  # assigns readable resource id
  puts rsc.find('@string/app_name') # => 'application name'

  # assigns hex resource id
  puts rsc.find('@0x7f040000') # => 'application name'

  # you can set lang attribute.
  puts rsc.find('@0x7f040000', :lang => 'ja')

Dex

Extract dex information

  apk = Android::Apk.new('sample.apk')
  dex = apk.dex
  # listing string table in dex
  dex.strings.each do |str|
    puts str
  end

  # listing all class names
  dex.classes.each do |cls| # cls is Android::Dex::ClassInfo
    puts "class: #{cls.name}"
    cls.virtual_methods.each do |m| # Android::Dex::MethodInfo
      puts "\t#{m.definition}" # puts method definition
    end
  end

Parse dex file directly

  dex_data = File.open('classes.dex','rb').read{|f| f.read }
  dex = Android::Dex.new(dex_data)
